Pesachim 114A

רבי יצחק בן אחא דשמעתא, הוא רבי יצחק בן פנחס דאגדתא. וסימניך (שמעו נא אחיי ורעיי).

The R' Yitzhak ben Aḥa mentioned in a ruling of halakha is the same as the R' Yitzḥak ben Pineḥas who appears in statements of aggada. And your mnemonic to remember the names is the standard phrase: Listen my brothers and friends [shimu na aḥai vere’ai]. Shimu sounds like shema’ta, the term for halakha, while aḥai is similar to the patronymic ben Aḥa.

אמר רבא בר בר חנה אמר רבי יוחנן משמיה דרבי יהודה ברבי אילעי: אכול בצל ושב בצל, ולא תיכול אווזין ותרנגולין ויהא לבך רודף עליך. פחות ממיכלך וממשתיך, ותוסיף על דירתך.

Rabba bar bar Ḥana said that R' Yoḥanan said, citing R' Yehuda, son of R' Elai: Eat an onion [batzal] and sit in the shade [batzel], i.e., eat inexpensive food while sitting in a comfortable place, but do not eat expensive geese and chickens, as your heart will pursue you, i.e., you will develop a taste for luxuries. Devote less to your food and your drink and spend more on your house, as one’s house is a better investment than food.

כי אתא עולא, אמר: מתלא מתלין במערבא דאכיל אליתא ⁠— טשי בעליתא. דאכיל קקולי ⁠— אקיקלי דמתא שכיב.

When Ulla came from Eretz Yisrael to Babylonia he said that they say the following proverb in the west, Eretz Yisrael: One who eats a fat tail [alita] must hide in the attic [aliyata] from creditors who think he is wealthy. One who eats vegetables [kakulei] can lie down in the city’s garbage [kiklei] without fear of others, as he is not in debt.

מתני׳ מזגו לו כוס ראשון. בית שמאי אומרים: מברך על היום, ואחר כך מברך על היין. ובית הלל אומרים: מברך על היין, ואחר כך מברך על היום.

Mishnah: The tanna describes the beginning of the Passover seder. The attendants poured the wine of the first cup for the leader of the seder. Beit Shammai say: One recites the blessing over the sanctification of the day, i.e., the kiddush for the Festival: Who blesses Israel and the Festivals, and after that he recites the blessing over the wine: Who creates fruit of the vine. And Beit Hillel say: One recites the blessing over the wine and after that recites the blessing over the day.
